There’s no substance. This article contains not a single number, not fact, nothing but an opinion out of the blue and supposedly aiming to sow division between Western allies.
Of course that’s Trump’s plan. Divide and conquer has been the name of the game this entire time. We know who our enemies are and what they want by now. It’s up to us not to let it happen.
Awesome, we need cheap steel to fight the shortage of housing.
If you think the price of Steel is the reason housing is expensive I have a Bridge to sell you
No, of course it’s not the sole reason, but cost of materials is a factor. Also if there is a pro-longed cease-fire in Ukraine, the amount of materials needed for reconstruction is immense and drive up prices. Meaning stockpiling cheap steel right now would make sense.
Yes, but it’s also far from the being the biggest factor.
Ground Speculation, insufficient or new construction of Social Units and a massive shortage are the reason. If Steel would be free tomorrow they wouldn’t rent you a new unit 1€ cheaper. Because they price them at what people are able to pay. Not on the costs they have
Is the bridge made of steel?
Every modern bridge is

The word slapped beeing bold and underlined made me laugh
I don’t share the pessimistic view of the article which calls Trump unironically a „master negotiator", but thinks the EU Commission and Canada are too stupid to talk to each other before they would slapp tariffs on each other
I don’t see the words “master negotiator” anywhere in the article.
I probably misremembered it, but they called him an hardline negotiator
The concern naturally points to another. After all, the Trump administration is full of hardline negotiators – including Trump himself – who are skilled in the dark arts of pitting allies and friends against one another.
Ah, fair. To me “hardline” doesn’t say anything about being good at it, just that he’s aggressive (which is true). But calling Trump skilled at negotiation seems wrong, or at least his skill seems to be in a very narrow type of zero-sum negotiation which is not well suited for the geopolitical level.
